11
Likewise in the beloved city He gave me rest, and in Jerusalem was my power.
12
And I took root in an honorable people, even in the portion of the Lord's inheritance.
13
"I was exalted like a cedar in Lebanon, and as a cypress tree upon the mountains of Hermon.
14
I was exalted like a palm tree in En-gedi, and as a rose plant in Jericho, as a fair olive tree in a pleasant field, and grew up as a plane tree by the water.
15
I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon and aspalathus, and I yielded a pleasant odor like the best myrrh, as galbanum, and onycha, and sweet storax, and as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.
16
As the turpentine tree I stretched out my branches, and my branches are the branches of honor and grace.
17
As the vine brought I forth pleasant savor, and my flowers are the fruit of honor and riches.
18
I am the mother of fair love and fear and knowledge and holy hope; I therefore, being eternal, am given to all my children which are named by Him.
19
"Come unto me, all ye that be desirous of me, and fill yourselves with my fruits.
20
For my memorial is sweeter than honey, and mine inheritance than the honeycomb.
21
They that eat me shall yet be hungry, and they that drink me shall yet be thirsty.
